Toole Carbolic Add.
Ella Jones, a pretty 19-year-old girl
of the under world, died to-day at the
Grady Hospital as the result of a dose
of carbolic acid, taken with suicidal
intent. She drank the acid last night
in her room on Colling street. Nothing
is known of her people.
Xo Trace ol Itemley.
No trace has been found by the city
detective force of John Remley, the
wealthy Indiana planter who disap
peared from a Pullman sleeper last
Wednesday night between Rome and
Atlanta. The matter was left in the
hands of the local police by Chief
Steele of Crawfordsville, Ind., who
went on to Jacksonville, where Rem
ley's wife and brother are prostrated
in a sanitarium. Persistent search has
discovered no clue as to what became
of him.
Jordan Appeals to Furnirra.
President Harvie Jordan of the
Southern Cotton Growers’ Protective
Association has issued an urgent ap
peal from his home at Monticello to
the Southern cotton planters to hold
their cotton for better prices. Only by
united action, he says, can the cotton
growers hope to accomplish anything
in the face of the great odds against
them. He says he believes by united
action the cotton growers can command
higher prices, ten cents a pound and
perhaps more.
Auto Wrecked the Seales.
A big touring automobile wrecked
the city's official scales to-day. The
auto is the property of the Piedmont
Hotel and was brought here to do a
"touring Atlanta" stunt. There was a
dispute between the railroad and the
owners as to the weight, and permis
sion was obtained to weigh it on the
city's scales. These scales are said to
carry up to 10,500 pounds, but they
snapped to pieces under the weight
of the machine. The railroad claim
ed it weighed 10,700 pounds.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few Pcopl? Know How Cscful It Is
in Preserving Health anil Beauty.
Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it Is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present in
the stomach and intestines and car
ries them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and im
proves the complexion: it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural,
and eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the injurious gases which
collect In the stomach and bowels; it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they
are composed of the finest powdered
Willow charcoal, and other harmless
antiseptics in tablet form or rather
In the form of large, pleasant tasting
lozenges, the charcoal being mixed
with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in a much improved condi
tion of the general health, better com
plexion, sweeter breath and purer
blood, and the beauty of it is, that no
possible harm can result from their
continued use, but on the contrary,
great benefit.
A Buff alb physician in speaking of
the benefits of charcoal, says: "I ad
vise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stom
ach and bowels, and to clear the com
plexion and purify the breath, mouth
and throat; I also believe the liver is
greatly benefited by the dally use of
them; they cost but twenty-five cents
a box at drug stores, and although
in some sense a patent preparation, yet
I believe I get more and better char
coal in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges
than In any of the ordinary charcoal
tablets.”
